To do this, he shoots a signal out of a crack in the rocks with a homemade bow crafted from a handy branch and Eva Marie's leopard-skin brassiere. "I'm certainly glad I didn't burn my bra," coos Eva Marie. This sort of sniggering sitcom stuff belongs more prop erly on television, the celluloid burial ground...
